Haha that badass four wheeler I posted a picture of busted the back window out of my blue stepside I showed you. That bike was cool but I rebuilt front and rear differentials and a new rear pinion gear, and put new rings in the motor all within the first month of my second ownership. It was bad to the bone but it was a money pit. A inlet for coolant cracked right before I sold it an it started leakin coolant everywhere. That was when I parked it. Now I've seen it for sale 3 different times by 3 different people, and it now has a cracked rear differential. Haha they can keep the bikes for now, ill play with my truck in the mean time.

Actually got a tree branch impaled in my thigh riding lately. 2 weeks out of work. Even less money.

Got an 03 banshee.
Can't complain about the reliability, never left me stranded, only time it came close was when one of the throttle cables on the stock setup snapped, leaving me to ride back on 1 cylinder.
Also sheared a cotter pin and castle nut on the rear axle hub somehow, still don't know how it happened. Wheel passed me going only about 20mph luckily, would have been a bad ending had it happened in 6th gear somewhere. Still scary
Had it for 8 years, granted there were a couple years in there where it didn't get ridden at all, it still has 120psi in each cylinder on the stock motor and runs like a raped ape with just a set of pipes, reeds, decent tune and better suspension.

I'll get a 4x4 when I get fat and old
(don't get mad, there's no sarcasm font)
